Europe car hire.

[kelvedon]

I’m looking to book a car for 20 days through Avis/Budget from LHR
Picking the car up at 6pm and dropping it back at 6am
If I book the return to be at 7pm instead it becomes a 3 week hire and is $200 cheaper.
Any experience if I drop the 21 day hire car at 6am ( for my flight) to get the 21 day rate even though that would technically it a 20 day hire, which should be charged at the higher rate ?
It’ll be prepaid.

So you will be returning the car earlier? There will be no problems with that.
If you are dropping the car off at 6am you will likely need to use the after hours drop off area which might be different to where you pick the car up - so just ask what the process for after hours drop off when you pick the car up.
